Here's what lawn care looks like in North Augusta:

Best Grass Types for North Augusta

The best grass types for Aiken and Edgefield counties are warm-season grasses. Many are drought-tolerant but also withstand heavy rain and full sun to survive the area’s weather. Here are some of the most common varieties:

• Zoysiagrass: This turf type performs well in dry periods, humidity, sun, and shade.  
• St. Augustine: A sun and humidity-loving variety, it is vulnerable to the winter chill but will bounce back during the Piedmont region’s springs.
• Centipedegrass: A shade-tolerant, low-maintenance variety, however, it does not perform well in high-traffic areas.

How Often Should You Mow Your Lawn? Mow weekly from late March until late November. For best results, mow every five to seven days for most varieties, and more often for aggressively-growing types. In the winter months, reduce mowing frequency.

Common Lawn Pests and Diseases in North Augusta

The high humidity is conducive to several lawn pests and diseases, including:

• Digging and Burrowing Pests: Mole crickets and Japanese beetles burrow into your soil and damage the grassroots. 
• Chewing Pests: These nuisances, like armyworms, chew on grass, draining it of nutrients and causing wilting and browning.   
• Fungal Diseases: High humidity produces fungal infections like powdery mildew, brown rot, and anthracnose.
